- 56:1
- When the inevitable event comes to pass
- 56:2
- Then will no soul entertain falsehood concerning its coming
- 56:3
- Many will it bring low, many will it exalt
- 56:4
- When the earth will be shaken to its depths
- 56:5
- And the mountains will be crumbled to atoms
- 56:6
- Becoming dust scattered abroad
- 56:7
- And you will be sorted out into three classes
- 56:8
- The companions of the right, what are the companions of the right
- 56:9
- And the companions of the left, what are the companions of the left
- 56:10
- And those foremost, will be foremost
- 56:11
- These will be those nearest to God
- 56:12
- In gardens of bliss
- 56:13
- A number of people from those of the past
- 56:14
- And a few from those of later times
- 56:15
- On thrones encrusted
- 56:16
- Reclining on them, facing each other
- 56:17
- Around them will be youth of perpetual innocence
- 56:18
- With goblets, bowls, and cups filled from clear-flowing fountains
- 56:19
- No after-ache will they receive from it, nor will they suffer intoxication
- 56:20
- And fruits, any they may select
- 56:21
- And the meat of fowl, any that they may desire
- 56:22
- And companions with beautiful eyes
- 56:23
- Like pearls well guarded
- 56:24
- A reward for the deeds of their past
- 56:25
- Neither frivolousness will they hear therein, nor any taint of harm
- 56:26
- Only the saying, “Peace, peace.
- 56:27
- The companions of the right hand, what are the companions of the right hand
- 56:28
- They will be among lotus trees without thorns
- 56:29
- Among Talh trees with flowers piled one above another
- 56:30
- In shade long extended
- 56:31
- By water flowing constantly
- 56:32
- And fruit in abundance
- 56:33
- Whose season is not limited, nor prevented
- 56:34
- And on thrones, raised high
- 56:35
- We have created their companions of a special creation
- 56:36
- And made them virgin - pure
- 56:37
- Beloved, equal in age
- 56:38
- For the companions of the right hand
- 56:39
- A number from those in the past
- 56:40
- And a number from those of later times
- 56:41
- The companions of the left hand, who will be the companions of the left hand
- 56:42
- They will be in the middle of a fierce blast of fire and in boiling water
- 56:43
- And in the shades of black smoke
- 56:44
- Nothing to refresh, or to please them
- 56:45
- Because they were accustomed to indulging, before that, with their wealth
- 56:46
- And insisted on great harm
- 56:47
- And they used to say, “What, when we die and become dust and bones, will we then indeed be raised up again
- 56:48
- “And our ancestors?
- 56:49
- Say, “Yes, those in the past and those of later times
- 56:50
- “All will certainly be gathered together, for the meeting appointed for a day well-known
- 56:51
- “Then will you truly, O you who go wrong by treating truth as falsehood
- 56:52
- “You will surely taste of the Tree of Zaqqum
- 56:53
- “Then and there you will fill your insides
- 56:54
- “And drink boiling water on top of it
- 56:55
- “Indeed you will drink like thirsty camels.
- 56:56
- Such will be their entertainment on the Day of Punishment
- 56:57
- It is We Who have created you. Why will you not witness the truth
- 56:58
- Do you then see that which you throw out
- 56:59
- Is it you who create it, or are We the Creators
- 56:60
- We have decreed death for you, and We are not to be stopped
- 56:61
- From changing your forms, and creating you in forms that you know not
- 56:62
- And you certainly already know the first form of creation. Why then do you not praise Him
- 56:63
- Do you see the seed that you sow in the ground
- 56:64
- Is it you who cause it to grow, or are We the cause
- 56:65
- Were it Our will, We could crumble it to dry powder, and you would be left in wonderment
- 56:66
- Saying, “We are indeed left with debts
- 56:67
- “Indeed we are shut out.
- 56:68
- Do you see the water which you drink
- 56:69
- Do you bring it down from the cloud or do We
- 56:70
- If it were Our will, We could make it salty. So why do you not give thanks
- 56:71
- Do you see the fire which you kindle
- 56:72
- Is it you who causes the tree to grow which feeds the fire, or do We cause it to grow
- 56:73
- We have made it a memorial, an article of comfort, and convenience for the denizens of deserts
- 56:74
- Then glorify with praises the name of your Lord, the Supreme
- 56:75
- Furthermore, I call to witness the setting of the stars
- 56:76
- And that is indeed a mighty adjuration if you only knew
- 56:77
- That this is indeed a Quran most honorable
- 56:78
- In a book well guarded
- 56:79
- Which none will touch but those who are clean
- 56:80
- A revelation from the Guardian Evolver of all the systems of knowledge
- 56:81
- Is it such a message that you would hold in light esteem
- 56:82
- And have you made it your life to declare it false
- 56:83
- Then why do you not intervene when the soul reaches the throat
- 56:84
- But you just stand there looking on
- 56:85
- But We are nearer to him than you, but you see not
- 56:86
- Then why do you not, if you are exempt from account
- 56:87
- Call back the soul, if you are truthful
- 56:88
- Then if he is of those nearest to God
- 56:89
- There is for him rest and satisfaction, and a garden of pleasure
- 56:90
- And if he is of the companions of the right hand
- 56:91
- Then for him is the salutation, “Peace be unto you,” from the companions of the right hand
- 56:92
- And if he is of those who treat truth as false, and who go wrong
- 56:93
- For him is entertainment with boiling water
- 56:94
- And burning in hellfire
- 56:95
- Indeed, this is the truth with certainty
- 56:96
- So glorify with praises the name of your Lord, the Supreme
